Experimental Design

(add the correct headings from the experimental design page before beginning)

What is your experimental unit?

This is the base unit of your experiment, for example, one plant, one ice cube, one dish. It is the thing you will be measuring.

Number Of Trials:

This is how many times you will repeat the experiment.

Number Of Subjects In Each trial:

This is the number of different treatments you will use. For example, if you are comparing rust formation using salt and no salt, there would be 2 subjects in each trial. If you were comparing rust formation with no salt and three different amounts of salt, then you would have 4 subjects in each trial.

Number of Observations:

How many measurements will you take for each experimental unit times the number or trials

When data will be collected

Looking for an actual date or dates here. This is requiring you to commit to your project.

Where will data be collected?:

Be specific.
